Learn How to Recreate Emmy Rossum's Glamorous Waves from New York Comic Con

The actress's hairstylist reveals how to create these sweeping waves on your own.

Emmy Rossum went old-school with her elegant daytime waves at New York Comic Con while promoting her new film Beautiful Creatures. Her siren-red dress updated her look with modern cutouts and drop earrings for a contemporary twist. Celebrity hairstylist Brian Magallones explains, "I wanted to do her hair with a glamorous '50s style wave, but I wanted it to have more of a daytime feel to it, rather than looking like she was going to the Oscars." Below, Magallones gives us the full breakdown of Emmy's classic curls.

"I started by blowing her naturally curly hair straight with a large round bristle brush. I used a Spornette brush that has a combination of nylon and boar bristles, which helps to get the hair smooth and shiny. I applied a combination of René Furterer Vegetal Sculpting Gel and a few drops of Amika Serum Treatment to give the hair hold, shine, and to keep frizz at bay. I then took 1-inch sections around a 1-inch barrel curling iron making sure that all of the waves went in the same direction. I brushed it out with a Mason Pearson brush to relax the wave, used my fingers and comb to shape the waves into the '50s inspired look, and gave it a good spray of René Furterer Vegetal Finishing Spray to keep the look in place. The final touch was a light mist of René Furterer Glossing Spray to make her shine like the star that she is!"
